Very informative review on the new GSX-S1000. It's a pity they did not include cruise control when they updated the ride by wire throttle. Riding in Philippines traffic looks very dangerous! Stay safe !
100% agreed! I have this bike on my channel too. Sick bikes these are especially with an exhaust and ECU flash which makes it feel like a full on sportbike!
I cant wait to get mine. I dont know how people dont like the styling. It looks great especially with some add ons. I really wanted an mt10 at first but they are so expensive and hard to find. Ill stick with suzuki.
Couldn’t agree more, the gsxs1000 cannot be beaten on price. IMO, you don’t any more ride aids than it has, the traction control is more than capable, if you need more it’s not the bikes fault you can’t ride it safely (outside of full throttle racing, where a better system may give you the edge). Strictly in my opinion. The rear shock is always a compromise due to cost. Im a heavier due and can get it do what I want but means it’s pretty firm at slow speeds. Excellent bike for the money.
"I'm just getting into my own, I've only had it for two days, but I bought it after a day of test riding the demo. It's a killer bike in every way! Although it wasn't that important to me, it's really good looking and to appreciate it, you have to see the bike live, photos don't do it justice. I personally found the matte grey color to be the most attractive, but of course, that's a matter of taste. I was convinced to order it because of its lightness (in feeling, because objectively it's not the lightest in its class), the engine, which, in addition to its beautiful history, is still unmatched by the competition in terms of performance, power delivery, reliability, predictability, and sound. Such engines will no longer be produced. Amazing power, eagerness to ride, straight, in turns, whatever the rider imagines, it will happen! The riding position is a successful compromise, providing enjoyment and technical capabilities for those who want to ride dynamically and those who want to comfortably explore nearby towns (although there is no exaggeration with tourism either, due to the lack of a windshield and the high, retracted legs). For me, another huge plus is that the bike doesn't heat up the handlebars, which is a problem on many motorcycles. I, for example, considered buying a Ducati Street V2 and the way they gave off heat to the rider was unacceptable. The suspension in the factory setting is rather for dynamic/sport riding (not hardcore), but if it's not your thing - you have plenty of adjustment options to find your own setting. The brakes, in addition to being very efficient, are also very controllable - full control in any conditions. I don't expect anything more. The gem in the standard equipment setup is the top-notch quickshifter, which works phenomenally in practically every rpm range, of course, up and down, and we get it without any extra charge. The cherry on top is the exhaust - it sounds and looks fantastic, it can make pleasant pops, sound bassy, and it doesn't tire you out, despite the ridiculous EURO(5) regulations. And it looks good! It doesn't require replacement at all. As for the downsides - the display is not very clear, but it helps a little to increase the brightness settings to max, the standard setting is low. I would also pay more attention to the rather hard seat in the long run - consider something accessory. I also don't like the "short" clutch, especially in the new one, in the demo with a mileage of about 5k km, it wasn't so noticeable. Vibrations - practically throughout the range, more or less, not like those from a 1 or 2 cylinder bike, but they could be a little less. Tires (Dunlop Roadsport2) - after two days, it's hard to say for sure, because I'm still breaking them in, but I suspect that we won't get along well after losing traction on a decent straight. I ride, I observe. That's probably all for today, I'll ride more and say more.
Not to many reviews on this bike, thank you for sharing your review on this future legendary bike!
